Scholar's Stone Candle
A literati scholar's stone — taihu rock in grey-blue wax — inscribed with red seal-script characters on its natural face. It rests on a carved rosewood base. In a scholar's study, such stones represented the wild, uncontrolled forces of nature. This one is made to be burned.

Scholar's Stone Candle
The scholar's stone is an object whose value is entirely in its form — a rock that suggests a mountain, collected and displayed as a reminder that great things can be contained in small ones. This candle adopts the same logic: carved in grey-veined wax to resemble a gongshi, it sits on a desk and insists, quietly, on depth.
